Our team here at Harrisons have a really clear ethos. We want to change the perception of estate agency. Unfortunately, and frustratingly, we are an untrusted profession. We want to prove that we couldn’t be further from that – and we are achieving it, one client at a time.
I joined Harrisons in August 2023, having previously worked in hospitality and tutoring.
One of my favourite parts of my job at Harrisons is helping people. Be that finding a home, finding a buyer or just to help find a solution so that they can move on with their lives.
In my spare time I like to go to the gym, socialise with friends and spend time with my boyfriend, who is a property conveyancer (thereby dispelling the myth that estate agents and conveyancer’s don’t get on!)
A fact you never knew about me: I moved to Malaysia when I was just 9 months. Due to this I learnt to speak Malay before I could speak English. As I returned to the UK when I was around two years old, I sadly soon forgot what I learned and now only know a couple of phrases in Malay.
Do you remember the child who wouldn’t stop talking in class? Yes, that was me! Although school wasn’t my forte, I’d always had an inner drive. My ambition was to go into the police, then the fire brigade – but there was a 3-year waiting list.
In 2004, my auntie told me about a job at Harrisons; I applied – and I got it. I’m naturally ambitious, I set myself goals and always seek to work my way to the top – I had my sights firmly fixed on doing the best I could for my clients. By 2019, I was the owner and director of Harrison’s.
I’m blessed to have a lovely wife who is very supportive and three gorgeous kids, one boy aged 3, a girl coming up to 2 years and another little girl born July 2021. So, as you can imagine, my home-life is as busy as my work! Successfully establishing a work-life balance is a constant challenge, but with my incredible team who all share and are committed to my vision, it’s improving.
I’ve always had a passion for marketing and supporting small independent businesses. After seeing there was an opportunity within estate agency to offer clients an alternative way to market their homes, without the reliance on property portals such as Rightmove and Zoopla, I successfully set up my own estate agency in 2017 in Faversham which went on to be awarded Faversham Business Of The Year in 2019 by The Swale Business Awards.
After a change in circumstances in 2020, I realised I was well and truly bitten by the estate agency bug. I met Chris from Harrisons and we instantly realised we shared a similar ethos in terms of changing the way people view estate agents and how we believe agency focus on people and delivering an outstanding service.
Since joining the Harrisons team, we have worked hard supporting the community, as well as offering an outstanding service to our clients. I’m particularly proud of the charity work and collaborations we have set up supporting other local businesses, for which we have gone on to win more industry awards.
Outside of work, you’ll find I’m very much involved in the local community, organising events, running community groups and shop local initiatives. I also have a passion for local history, photography and enjoy spending time on my allotment and with my husband and two daughters.
A fact you didn’t know about me: I created Faversham’s own version of the iconic board game, Monopoly. To do this under licence to Hasbro, I had to fund raise over £60,000 (plus VAT)
I have always worked within customer service, starting off as cabin crew for Hoverspeed, moving on to working for Santander for 7 years.
I love being around people and have always had a great ability to sell.
I have been married for 13 years, I have 3 wonderful boys , George 10, Oliver 7, and Dougie 3. The boys love football so we spend a lot of time in the garden and park.
In my spare time I love spending time with my friends, having weekend and evening out drinking good wine and eating great food.
I love to travel and spent several years living in Croatia, I am always thinking about my next adventure.
